We recently closed a round of seed funding from a couple of smart and supportive investors, and we are excited for the next stage of our journey!

Our mission is bold: Build an intelligence layer around the 10 000 English news-related content pieces that get published every day. Then use this layer to power an easy-to-use category based content aggregation app that helps professionals efficiently consume content across multiple content sources.

We want to enable a content consumption experience that is simple to use, yet comprehensive in depth and breadth of content.

We are already 6 months into our journey. You can download the latest version of the app at http://ukufu.com.
